Düsseldorf, November 27, 2007. Danaher Motion, the specialist in motion control technology, will shortly be showcasing four new products on Stand1-550 in Hall 1 of SPS/IPC/Drives 2007. The focus will be on the Danaher Motion Suite, a new automation control package whose extreme flexibility and uniquely simple (up to 80% faster) programming revolutionizes machine control. By allowing full simulation of even highly complex processes involving over 200 axes, this software simplifies optimization of machine performance and drastically shortens the commissioning phase. AKM motors with space-saving flat connectors, new Cartridge DDR motors and a fresh range of servo amplifiers for multi-axis applications will also receive their public launch at the trade fair.  more >

Düsseldorf, November 27 2007. Danaher Motion, the specialist in drive and control technology, tailors products to meet individual customer wishes and can now offer its AKM motors with an ITT Cannon CmX connector board on request. The new flat connector solution combines the advantages of round connectors with those of a classic motor terminal box. With its impressively low height of just 2 cm, it is perfect for applications where space is at a premium. And it can offer both time and cost savings during fitting and removal of the motor.  more >

Düsseldorf, 27 November 2007. Danaher Motion, the specialist in motion control technology, is now offering their Cartridge DDR direct drive motors in smaller sizes. Cartridge DDR motors allow machine builders to connect the motor direct to the load, allowing for the elimination of mechanical linkages and gearing systems, reducing machine cost and improving performance. The new models, with flange sizes of 108, 137 and 188mm, combine the advantages of direct drive motors – which include small dimensions and constant, high torque, high dynamics and accuracy, as well as low maintenance and wear – with the fast assembly of enclosed motors. This allows smaller machines to be built more quickly - machines that provide higher workpiece quality at higher output, while generating lower follow-up costs than conventional solutions.   more >
